C&K 7411SYCLE Toggle Switch DP3T Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The C&K 7411SYCLE is a panel-mounted toggle switch with DP3T (Double Pole Triple Throw) circuit configuration, rated for 5A at 120V AC and 28V DC. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent and substitute parts for ongoing applications. The switch features a standard round actuator with PC pin termination and operates across -30°C to 85°C.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7411SYCLE is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Circuit configuration: DP3T
• Switch function: On-On-On
• Current rating: Minimum 5A (AC/DC)
• Voltage rating: Minimum 120V AC, 28V DC
• Mounting type: Panel Mount
• Termination style: PC Pin
• Panel cutout dimensions: Circular - 6.35mm Dia
• Bushing thread: 1/4-40

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

1. Direct Equivalent (C&K 7411SYCRE): Maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications with active product status and updated compliance certifications.

2. Functional Equivalent (Electroswitch A432P31YCQ): Meets or exceeds core electrical parameters with minor mechanical variations in actuator design and panel cutout specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

C&K 7411SYCRE (Direct Equivalent): This part is the primary replacement for the obsolete 7411SYCLE. It maintains identical electrical ratings, mechanical dimensions, and actuator specifications. The 7411SYCRE is active in production with RoHS compliance certification. Selection of this part eliminates design modification requirements and ensures form-fit-function compatibility.

Electroswitch A432P31YCQ (Functional Equivalent): This part satisfies all core electrical requirements with enhanced performance specifications: 6A current rating (versus 5A), 125V AC rating (versus 120V), and 60,000 cycle electrical life (versus 40,000 cycles). The actuator type differs (flatted versus standard round) and panel cutout dimensions are not specified. This part is suitable for applications where the enhanced electrical ratings provide margin and where actuator geometry and panel cutout compatibility can be verified independently. The part is active and RoHS compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 7411SYCRE directly replace the 7411SYCLE without design changes? A: Yes. The 7411SYCRE maintains identical electrical ratings (5A, 120V AC, 28V DC), mechanical dimensions (6.35mm circular cutout, 1/4-40 bushing thread), actuator specifications (standard round, 10.67mm length), and termination style (PC pin). No design modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between the 7411SYCRE and A432P31YCQ? A: The 7411SYCRE is a direct C&K equivalent with identical specifications. The A432P31YCQ is manufactured by Electroswitch with higher current rating (6A versus 5A), higher AC voltage rating (125V versus 120V), extended electrical life (60,000 versus 40,000 cycles), and a flatted actuator type instead of standard round. Panel cutout dimensions for the A432P31YCQ are not specified.

Q: Is the A432P31YCQ compatible with existing panel cutouts designed for the 7411SYCLE? A: Panel cutout compatibility cannot be confirmed. The 7411SYCLE specifies a circular 6.35mm diameter cutout; the A432P31YCQ panel cutout dimensions are not provided. Physical verification is required before installation.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to each substitute part? A: The 7411SYCRE carries RoHS compliance certification. The A432P31YCQ is RoHS compliant. Both parts are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.50.9065.

Q: Can the A432P31YCQ be used in applications rated for 5A at 120V? A: Yes. The A432P31YCQ is rated for 6A at 125V AC, which exceeds the 5A at 120V requirement of the original 7411SYCLE. Electrical compatibility is satisfied. Mechanical compatibility (actuator type and panel cutout) must be verified independently.
